Alternatively using z4 hubs and e46 solid rear discs bring the rear in by 23mm each side, Chris took a photo its in the wheel thread on the forum
The fronts should fit in the arches with the coilovers but your turning circle might be limited
Personally I liked the picture of the 205 70 tyres on the wires you took in italy

Yep, I like the idea of thicker pads, just not the idea of fitting them as they were a right pain in the butt to replace those springs,
it might be a good reason to invest in some spring compression tools....
Z4 hubs and discs, are beyond my skill set, I leave that to the pro's
